F8 install hangs

Hi, I need some advice here, when I try to install fedora 8 i386 from the DVD it gets as far as
[loading?] /sbin/init then hangs, this is a few lines down from loading anaconda installer v****

any advice? I tried a live CD but it comes up with device errors and wont boot.

this is a HP laptop currently funning F7
